The Fort by Cornwell Bernard

In the summer of 1779 a British force of fewer than a thousand Scottish infantry, backed by three sloops-of-war, is sent to the coast of what is now the state of Maine. The Revolutionary War is in its third year and has moved to the Southern States, leaving the Scots in the North—the only British troops between Canada and New York. Their orders are to make a garrison in Penobscot Bay that can serve as a naval base to harry rebel privateers on the New England coast and to establish a safe haven for American Loyalists driven from their homes by the rebels.

The story of the Penobscot Expedition, ultimately the largest American naval expedition of the Revolutionary War, has largely been left untold—until now.

Based on diaries, letters, and the transcripts of the enquiries and court-proceedings that followed, The Fort is the extraordinary account of this historic clash between a superpower and a nation in the making, told by "the most prolific and successful historical novelist in the world today" (Wall Street Journal).

All created to provide readers with an in-depth experience with this slice of American and British history.
